| On May 11,2024,General Secretary Xi Jinping made important instructions on the construction of ideological and political theory courses in schools: " We should adhere to the guidance of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for the new Era,fully implement the Party’s educational policy,implement the fundamental task of moral education,and promote the construction of ideological and political courses and the Party’s innovative theory." Xi Jinping’s letter is an applied style in which Comrade Xi Jinping,as the leading core of the Communist Party of China and the top leader of the country,transmits information and exchanges ideas and feelings with specific objects.As an important part of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era,Xi Jinping’s letters explore the function of ideological and political education in the construction of ideological and political courses and the simultaneous promotion of the Party’s innovative theory.The ideological and political education function of Xi Jinping’s letters has two meanings: First,Xi Jinping’s letters directly act on the cognition,emotion and will of the letter object and the letter group,and have a positive impact on their ideals,beliefs,values and ideological and moral character.Secondly,the ideological and political education function of Xi Jinping’s letters mainly refers to Xi Jinping’s purposeful,planned and organized influence as the teaching content or educational carrier in the process of ideological and political education.Giving full play to the ideological and political education function of Xi Jinping’s letters is conducive to boosting the party’s innovative theory "flying into the homes of ordinary people",facilitating the reform and innovation of ideological and political theory courses,and facilitating the development and growth of the patriotic united front in the new era.The historical characteristics of Xi Jinping’s letters have distinct stage characteristics.The work course of General Secretary Xi Jinping is the practical basis for dividing the development course of Xi Jinping’s ideological and political education in letters.In the period of Liangjiahe educated youth,Xi Jinping letters focused on self-education and helping the masses,and focused on social governance and concept innovation;since the new era,Xi Jinping letters focused on the overall strategic situation and various groups.The key reason why Xi Jinping’s letters can play the function of ideological and political education lies in Xi Jinping’s flexible use of various positions and carriers to interact with the educated,embed the innovation theory of grassroots governance armed,and grasp the special nodes to promote feelings.The function of ideological and political education in Xi Jinping’s letters is mainly manifested as the function of mainstream ideology education,the function of cohesion,development and construction,and the improvement of the effectiveness of ideological and political courses.To construct the content system of the ideological and political education function of Xi Jinping’s letters should adhere to the principle of integrity and classification and stratification.The content system includes three aspects: first,the mainstream ideology education function.Xi Jinping’s letters can effectively promote the latest theoretical achievements into the brain,improve the people’s overall thinking ability,and establish a correct view of party history and great history.Second,we need to gather the function of consensus in development and construction.Based on social practice,Xi Jinping’s letters can cultivate civic morality,play the role of Chinese spirit and build the consensus of people at home and abroad.Third,the effectiveness of ideological and political courses to improve the function.Xi Jinping’s letters can help to expand the diversified theme teaching content,create a vivid ideological and political teaching situation,and create a new ideological and political education needs.At present,the ideological and political education value contained in Xi Jinping’s letters is gradually paid attention and attention.Units at all levels respond quickly to the letters and feedback well;the letter spirit is fully implemented,and letter education has become the norm.At the same time,the current study and implementation of Xi Jinping’s letter spirit is not in place,the coverage of letter education is narrow,usually "within the system";the letter exit path is relatively single,often appear as educational content;the timeliness of letter education is obvious,and the whole chain mechanism needs to be optimized.The main reasons that restrict the efficient play of Xi Jinping’s ideological and political education function’s letters are that the implementation of the letter spirit as an educational task needs to be coordinated,the implementation of Xi Jinping’s letter resources as an educational content needs to be integrated,and the needs of the masses as the educational driving force need to be further explored.To give full play to the ideological and political education function of Xi Jinping’s letters,the key is to solve the problem from three aspects: educators,educator and mechanism optimization.First of all,expand the audience group and expand the coverage of Xi Jinping’s ideological and political education function in letters.Starting from the youth group,facing the social group continues to extend.Strengthen the incentive role of letters to young people,give play to the guiding role of letters to party members,and give play to the cohesion role of letters to the people.Secondly,it is necessary to meet the educational needs and enhance the pertinence of the ideological and political education function of Xi Jinping’s letters.In line with the educational needs of Xi Jinping’s letters,Xi Jinping’s letters are used to help classroom teaching,and enrich and expand various fields of letter education.Finally,the whole chain mechanism should be optimized to ensure the efficient play of the ideological and political education function of Xi Jinping’s letters.Clarify all kinds of subjects of letter education,optimize the ideas of letter communication and publicity,and enrich the means of letter learning and implementation. |
